Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Where is the Daley Center for DUI cases?
A: Daley Center, 50 W Washington St, Chicago, IL.
Q: Will my license be suspended for a 1st time DUI arrest?
A: Yes. If you’ve been arrested for DUI and your case is in the Daley Center (District 1), Illinois law imposes a Statutory Summary Suspension of your driver’s license for 6 to 12 months under 625 ILCS 5/11-501. Repeat DUI arrests carry even harsher suspensions. The exact term depends on whether you refused chemical testing—which triggers a 12-month suspension—or recorded a BAC of 0.08% or higher (or tested positive for drugs). Shortly after your DUI case at Daley Center begins, the Secretary of State will mail you a Notice of Statutory Summary Suspension specifying the suspension period, which takes effect 46 days after your arrest.
Q: Can I fight the suspension of my license after a Daley Center DUI case?
A: Absolutely. You have 90 days from your arrest to file a Petition to Rescind under 625 ILCS 5/2-118.1, triggering an administrative hearing to contest the summary suspension. Whether you challenge the legality of the stop, the accuracy of the test, or procedural errors, Fabbrini Law Group regularly secures successful hearings for clients facing a 1st time DUI at the Daley Center—keeping them on the road.
Q: If my license is suspended following a Daley Center DUI arrest, can I still drive to work?
A: Yes. We’ll help you obtain a Monitoring Device Driving Permit (MDDP) for you, allowing limited driving privileges during your suspension period. This requires installing a BAIID (Breath Alcohol Ignition Interlock Device) in your vehicle, essentially a built-in breathalyzer. With an MDDP, you can commute to work, school, or medical appointments even while your DUI license suspension is in effect.

Fabbrini Law Group’s DUI attorneys’ reviews
Jim Fabbrini saved my husband’s license. After his second DUI we were worried that he would lose his license and not be able to work. Jim was able to have the charges lessened and keep my husband driving! He knows his way around a court room. He is a straightforward guy and tells you like it is. He fights hard for his clients for a fair price.”

Jim got a major case for me dismissed 100% on a technicality at trial!!! I have worked with some of the best lawyers in IL, and the Fabbrini law group trumps them all! Most lawyers do ZERO work and plead out to the best deal. Not Jim, there never even was an offer because we went straight to trial. Jim and Camby are excellent litigators and actually worked on my case. I was shown case law and everything they did every step of the way. 100% transparent communication. They went above and beyond for a fair price and didn’t charge more for trial for a case from 5/20/13. Highly recommended.

This is an exceptional law firm. I used this law firm to represent my case. This law firm was recommended by me from a friend by the name of Jay. About a year and a half had gone by after I get pulled over for a DUI among other citations. This would consist of me going through court in and out, constantly everyday for a DUI ticket I was wrongly accused for among other tickets. Now this really gets in the way of work. Now the court process is always a drag, but with Fabbrini lawyer Group/law Firm made everything so easy! They were there all the way and helped me step by step of the way and ensuring I understood my options and all my choices very well and are very flexible. They are not like other law firms that just look for you in your pockets for money. They are very professional and always look out for the best for their clients.
